We haven't seen former actress and current Twitter star Amanda Bynes out in public for over a week now, since she tweeted that she'd had a nose job and was planning another . But yesterday, shoppers in New York's MAC store were surprised to see a soggy Amanda shopping for make-up.

Onlookers say that Amanda, who was wearing sunglasses and a blonde wig, came into the shop soaked through because it was raining outside and she didn't have an umbrella. "Her wig was soaked and it looked disgusting," said US reports, adding: "Her feet looked really dirty. She was wearing sunglasses inside and just looked like a hot mess. Everyone was staring at her."

Surely we've all looked a bit like a drowned rat after being caught in the rain, though? Maybe she'd just left her umbrella on the bus like we do at least three times a week.

Shoppers also spotted Amanda in clothes store Forever 21 earlier that day, so it's not like Amanda's trying to keep a low profile - Times Square is filled with tourists and New Yorkers, all of whom have camera phones ...

Earlier this week, Amanda had tweeted compliments about Miley Cyrus's fiance Liam Hemsworth, calling him "the most gorgeous man on the face of the earth". She'd also slagged off her former crush, Drake, by calling him "ugly" and adding the final insult: "Drake has the ugliest smile, ugly gums uneven teeth ugly eyes." Er, right, got it, thanks Amanda.

Last week, it was reported that Amanda had been evicted from her New York apartment (or, y'know, flat as we call it over here) after residents of her building complained about her smoking in the hallways and being rude to the doormen.

But she's not exactly homeless ... she is a millionaire, after all. Could she be staying in one of the hotels around Times Square?

Amanda's carried on updating her one million followers on her movements on Twitter and yesterday, defended herself by saying: "When everything you do gets scrutinized you lash out! I freak out on whoever calls me something I'm not!"
